Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and his wife, Jane Sanders have hired prominent defense attorneys, amid an FBI investigation into a loan Jane Sanders obtained to expand Burlington College while she was its president, CBS News confirms.

Politico Magazine first reported the Sanders had hired lawyers to defend them in the probe. Sanders top adviser Jeff Weaver told CBS News the couple has sought legal protection over federal agents' allegations from a January 2016 complaint accusing then-President of Burlington College, Ms. Sanders, of distorting donor levels in a 2010 loan application for $10 million from People's United Bank to purchase 33 acres of land for the institution.

According to Politico, prosecutors might also be looking into allegations that Sen. Sanders' office inappropriately urged the bank to approve the loan.

This will be an interesting case. Let's see if she gets the Scrushy treatment or if she gets protected because of Bernie.

Bernie is a smuck.., err cuck! Any man who knowingly allowed the DNC/MSM to punk his arse in front of the whole world is a pussy! You know Bernie has spent time being humiliated by a 300 lb dominatrix, how big is his sweetie?

I have been reading about this for a while.
What is amazing is imagine if it were Cruz and his wife?!

MSM would have breaking stories every hour.

Yet, not a peep from them on this. Just like HRC's unethical business dealing's.

Truly amazing journalist we have out there!

What a broad brush you paint with. Classic leftist argumentative tactic.

You mean the guy who thinks bankers and the elite inappropriately use their power and influence to better themselves used his power and influence over a bank to better himself?

Liberals will completely ignore the fact that this began in Jan. 2016.

They'll call it a Trump admin witch hunt.

Well,according to leftists the existence of an investigation = guilt so bye bye Bernie.

His wife is a bigger fraud than he is.

Let's see,corrupt bitch more shady than her corrupt dem pol husband?

Are the dems going to run her in 2020? new most qualified candidate ever? Why? because the dems say so!

If they don't recommend charges based on "no intent" I think I might flip my shite.
